Report: FOX NEWS BANS Trump Surrogates from Debate ‘Spin Room’
Breitbart ^ | Jordan Dixon-Hamilton

Posted on 08/21/2023 8:18:53 PM PDT by AnthonySoprano

Fox News reportedly told former President Donald Trump’s surrogates they are not allowed access to the post-debate “spin room” following Trump’s announcement that he would skip the debate due to a significant polling advantage.

Aides typically tout their candidates and criticize their opponents in the “spin room,” according to Axios.

However, Fox News is no longer allowing Trump’s team to represent the former president in the “spin room” due to Trump’s decision to skip the debate. The conservative cable news outlet said post-debate credentials would be given only to “participating candidate/campaigns,” according to a memo obtained by Axios.

Members of Trump’s campaign, including his senior advisers, were also planning on being in the Spin Room.

But Fox News is in charge of credentials for the Spin Room. The RNC manages credentials for the actual debate, and sources said those tickets are still expected be honored.

Reality TV show ral.lies? YHOu mean the recruiting of his poll wporkers and the Trump electorate being solodofied?

Besides , all that is about to be changed up, and obviously you will be sorely missed from the array of those saving the country.

Ramaswamy and Scott will have cabinet appointments....the rest will compost on the piles of festering news print from the New York Times and the Washington Post.

The reason I still watch Fox: Judge Jeannine, Laura. I., Jesse W., Sean Hannity, and Mark Levin. All are really good and worthwhile.

Ouch, I turned autocorrect back on, using Siri, and that came out worse that Siri. Here is what I tried to say:

That was response to her being disrespectful to Americans and veterans in particular. You’ll need to read the history to see that. I am not going give a pass to a person such as that who repeatedly disrespects veterans and Americans and the US.

People seem to have a warped view of Congressional duties. People seem to think Gowdy was supposed to be the DA, Grand Jury, bailiff, acquire grand jury vote for prosecution, judge, jury, render verdict, sentence, handcuff, escort to prison and act as warden overseeing sentence. I truly begin to wonder if FReepers actually know what Congress is tasked to do and what PRECISELY was expected of Gowdy. Gowdy did EXACTLY his job within the confines of his constitutional duties. He brought forth to the public EVERY NIGHT (to an ignorant, anemic, non understanding public the corruption and crimes for all to see.

There was more than enough evidence presented in front of cameras for a fresh out of college lawyer to acquire a conviction. You expected Gowdy to get that through an all Democrat administration and AG? Laughable at most, ignorance at best. No, he was trying to awaken a sleeping public to place pressure on the administration to seek conviction…yet, as always the case, the soy milk, chocolate latte frappe crowd was to not be interrupted and denied their morning treats. So, we lash out at the man who not only uncovered the crimes, helped boost Trump into the White House because, well, even conservatives need their whipping boy.

You’re delusional if you believe Gowdy didn’t perform his Constitutional duties

The post you saw was probably removed by the mods for breaking FR rules. I have no idea if it really was about veterans, but obviously none of us should post negative comments about them as a group. My son is a Marine veteran.

“Brett Baier was worse than megyn k and Wallace in the 2015 debate.”

BB was WAY worse than Megyn. He actually “started it”.

Re: "Fox bans Trump surrogates"

In that case, I ban the Fox News Debate from my TV set!

There is plenty worthwhile on there.

Though I admit mostly my news is just the background noise.

I remember when Kim gave Bob Beckel a big smooch on New Year’s Eve. To think she was married to Gov Newsom of California

A snippet from a just received email from Glenn Greenwald, with a recap of his last night's Rumble podcast, just in case anyone is interested:

https://rumble.com/v3a3sbr-system-update-show-134.html

"....this week we will be in Milwaukee to cover the Trump-free GOP presidential debate live. We will have coverage both before and after the debate starts, as well as - we hope - interviews with candidates and others who are there.

Our primary reason for going is that - while Fox is hosting the debate and has exclusive rights to broadcast it on TV – this is the first time that Rumble has received the exclusive rights to broadcast and stream the debate live online. We regard this as a watershed moment for both independent journalism and a free internet: this was a rejection by the Republican Party of Big Tech platforms, motivated in part by the fact that GOP voters dislike and distrust Big Tech, but still, something that could only have happened if independent media in general and Rumble, in particular, were growing with enough speed and developing enough of a reach to a mass audience that the GOP could afford to give Rumble exclusive rights. That is exactly what is happening, and we will spend a little time before heading to the airport tonight to fly to Milwaukee discussing the significance of this moment."

Shut your filthy mouth you pig. You’re a damn pig. You’re nothing but a filthy, fricken ugly pig.

And she’s my Mother, and at nearly 86, do all the respect in the world.

You’re nothing but a damn fool. Pukes like you make me sick with your smug self-righteousness. FRICK OFF...ASSHOLE.
